India's Space Programme:



After decades of hiatus, India is on track with its space exploration programme. Earlier this year, in April, Indian Space Research Oraganization (ISRO) created a world record by putting 10 satellites in Earth's orbit on a single flight of its Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle (PSLV-C9). And come October, the country will put an unmanned spacecraft in Moon's orbit. Called Chandrayaan, It will circle the moon for two years mapping its surface for chemical composition.
